Abstract: Aspects directed towards hair ties are disclosed. In one example, a hair tie includes a branding component coupled to a substantially circular component comprising a flat surface area and comprised of elastic material. In another example, a hair tie includes a substantially circular component comprising a flat surface area and comprised of a polyester-based elastic material that includes a sublimation print. In yet another example, a method is disclosed, which includes obtaining a rectangular-shaped piece of elastic material, and printing on at least one side of the rectangular-shaped piece of elastic material via a sublimation printing technique. A first end of the rectangular-shaped piece of elastic material is then attached to a second end of the rectangular-shaped piece of elastic material to form a substantially circular component comprising a flat surface area.

Abstract: Entertainment systems for aircraft and other vehicles are described having a plurality of media players. The media players collectively store a full content set, with each media player storing only a fraction of the full content set. Each of the media players can be configured to index the full content set, such that media players can obtain missing content from other media players.
